Inside the book
The FUE section of Hair Transplantation, 6th edition
Twenty-six new chapters are given over to extraction: multiphasic automation, better punches, advanced instruments and the harvesting variations that have multiplied in recent years.
Placement, design and special cases
Implanters, holding solutions, hairline planning, ethnic variation, eyebrows, cosmetic and reconstructive eyelashes and transgender patients are handled in turn, with controversies laid out rather than hidden.
Beyond the operation
Scalp micropigmentation, cell-based and regenerative therapies, and the practicalities of training, equipment and legal risk complete the text.

Before you buy
Are the 31 surgical videos included?
No. The print edition is accompanied by 31 surgical videos, but this product is the publisher’s PDF of the book, so expect the text and images only.
Is this the same as the Practical Guide to Hair Transplantation?
No. The Practical Guide to Hair Transplantation 2nd edition (True, Garg & Garg) is a different book, sold separately as a PDF and as a videos-only product.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
